    I’m truly in awe of nature. Gaia as a living being has gotten a virus. And though lots of other species are affected and some have gone or will go extinct because of this, the species that are going to see the biggest % culling of their numbers and those who survive will have to adapt to most of all species is the exact species gaia’s trying to teach a lesson - if not outright get rid of.

      The species who will suffer the most and go extinct has had nothing to do with this. The climate change is all on humans, but most other species will suffer and die along with us. There are species going extinct right this moment on account of climate change.

      Meanwhile it is unlikely humans will go extinct, because we are much more capable of adapting than all those highly specialised species who suffers the most.

      Gaia sounds like an abusive parent in that case. Last time I checked it was her and her affair with evolution that threw us into the picture.

        Ha, that’s an interesting look on it.

        What I got from seeing this thunderous stuborn belief in religion and first and second comings, it that perhaps we are a GMO of apes by some ET species reprogrammed for mining and grabbing (accidentally discovering caffeine and inventing capitalism along the way) some rare resources or for terraforming for a different species for when they come again (this second coming shit I keep hearing about, which seems reason enough to justify the Palestian genocide and now litterally lighting the world on fire).

        In either scenario, humans wont be aren’t the beneficiaries.
